I’m excited to be launching a WPF training course through Toronto-based consultancy ObjectSharp. The course is called “Windows Presentation Foundation for Developers and Lead Designers,” and, as the title suggests, it offers a hands-on experience designed to give developers and lead designers the knowledge, background, tips and references they’ll need to build smart client applications using the Windows Presentation Foundation.
After enjoying the process of training a team of developers and designers to use WPF, this course is the result of turning that material into a course that we could offer here.
My goal is to give participants in the course the base knowledge and pointers they need to build WPF apps. I’ll also position WPF relative to other presentation layer technologies (such as WPF’s little brother Silverlight), and demonstrate practices that have been useful to me in development I’ve done for my clients.
The inaugural course offering is scheduled for August 11th-13th. [corrected 17 June] If you’re interested in taking part, please find more information about the course on ObjectSharp’s site. Also, if August 13th is too long for you to wait, or you’re interested in an on-site course, please contact me, or Julie James, ObjectSharp’s Training Manager.
Update 8 Aug: ObjectSharp has canceled the 11-13 Aug running of this course. I am now offering a WPF course independently through my consultancy for small groups of designers and developers. If you are interested, please contact me directly.
